inquisitor is in a fantastic position right now for many elemental skills, completely ignoring the insane new resistances that rares are likely to have here and there when critting. i personally preferred the consistency and ease of getting ball lightning to work over spark, i didn't have to worry about piercing enough in thicker packs of mobs or projectile speed affecting our DPS. i also just like the more readable and chunkier line of damage that BL provides. splitting our damage into cold is just crunchy icing on the cake. build feels great and has avoided many of the pain points of both the league and the rare mob rework. feels good to make such a classic skill work after i tried a BL archmage heiro that seemed pretty underwhelming; i knew the skill was strong but making it do the damage consistently was crucial.
